  "summary": "Rahul Gandhi, leader of opposition in Lok Sabha, has accused Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the BJP of silencing dissent in India, alleging that the internet was shut down in Delhi and students were beaten up during protests in the national capital. Gandhi made these remarks while addressing students at the Chhatron Ki Goonj event in Chennai, where he slammed the Prime Minister over the alleged police action on student protesters. He argued that questioning and curiosity are essential for progress and innovation, and that the Constitution protects citizens' right to question those in power.",
